Conflict Resolution: 

Removing the High Cost of Dispute

  

INTRODUCTION                                                           

1 Day

Building on the foundations for understanding human interactions, participants look at styles people exhibit during conflict and how to manage the resulting behaviors in themselves and others. Conflict is addressed both at the personal level and group level.  Participants take an honest, safe look at the role they may be playing in the conflict.  Elements of negotiation are considered (positional vs. principled negotiation; separating people from the problem; focusing on interests rather than positions; etc.) Practical approaches and applications are examined. 

AUDIENCE

This session is designed for leaders, managers, supervisors, and HR personnel who manage conflicts internally between people or groups or across organizational boundaries with other stakeholders. 

It is also appropriate for any employee who wants to prepare themselves for advancement within their organization, who find themselves needing to resolve differences and disagreements, or who are in positions requiring negotiation savvy.
